.CHURN-DASHER.

SPECIFICATION forming part of Letters Patent No. 294,70dated March 4, 1884.

Application filed June 14, 1883. (No model.)

To a/ZZ whom it may concern:

Beit known that we,BoBEET WEEE and MILTON G. BRooKs, citizens of the UnitedA States of America, residing at Elk Falls, in

:the countyof Elk and State of Kansas, have vinvented certain new and useful Improve- .ments in OhuruDashers; and we do hereby AIO ' on, which form a part of this specification.

This invention relates to certain new and useful improvements in churn-flashers, its object being to provide a means whereby the globules of cream willbe readilybroken, thereby hastening the operation of churning, and to this end our invention consists in the construction and combination of parts, as will be hereinafter set forth, and pointed out in the claim. l

In the annexed drawings, which illustrate our invention, Figure l is a perspective view and Fig. 2 is a transverse section.

A represents the handle of the dasher, to which is attached across-bar, B, having a central downwardly-projecting portion, b. Immediately under the said projecting portion of this bar B, adjacent to the sides of the under portion, b, of the same, are secured two wires, c c, which are parallel with the sides of this cross-bar, and are securely attached at their ends to a circumferential wire rim, C, which rim is attached to the cross-bar B by being inserted in a groove which is formed in the upper part of the bar b.

The parts hereinbefore described are all attached immovably or rigidly to each other.

To the transverse wires c c, under the rim C, are secured two hinged wings, D D, said wings being of sufficient length to extend beyond the rim C, so as to prevent the same from passing upwardly beyond the said Iim. The wings D D are provided at suitable points with perd', which are bent, asshown, so that the upper part will be parallel with the side wings, D D.

The operation of this invention may be described as follows: The dasher, being intended to be used in an ordinary churn by reciprocating the handle, should be of about the same di arneter as the churn-body. On the downward stroke of the churn-dash the wings D D will come in Contact with the rim O, which will hold the same in a horizontal position, and as the dasher is forced downward, the cream will be forced through the perforations in said wings and outward against the side of the churn. be inclined, as shown in Fig. 2. These wings are prevented from hanging parallel with each other when the dasher is constructed as shown by means of a crossbar, b, againstwhich the wings will strike, though when the dasher is constructed as hereinbefore set forth the pipes d' may be of such a length as to strike against the side plate attached to the rim O, thus providing a means of producing, when the dasher r0| forations d, above which are attached tubes On the upward stroke the wings will v is on its upward stroke, counter-currents of ing combined and organized, substantially as shown, and for the purpose set forth.

In testimony whereof we affix our signatures in presence of two witnesses.
